Stocks fell Thursday as disappointing earnings weighed on technology companies and after the Federal Reserve left its key rate unchanged and signaled it was still on track for one more hike this year.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average was mostly flat, and the S&P 500 was down 0.25%. The Nasdaq Composite lost 0.53%. The three major US indices had rallied a day before on the back of the midterm elections, where Democrats took control of the House and Republicans extended their majority in the Senate.

The dollar climbed 0.4% against a basket of currencies after the Federal Reserve kept its benchmark interest rate steady at 2.25% and signaled its fourth rate increase of the year could come in December. Treasury yields were also higher, with the 10-year up 1.9 basis points to 3.232%.

Ian Shepherdson, the chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics, said he was slightly surprised the Fed didn’t mention the drop in stocks. But he added that the rally over the past week meant the net impact on financial conditions since the stock market’s peak in early October had been relatively small.

“Assuming that remains the case, a rate hike next month is a done deal, but what we really want to see is how the Fed’s thinking evolves over the first few months of next year if the labor market continues to tighten and wage growth picks up, as we expect,” he said.

Earnings season continued, with Square beating on the top and bottom lines but falling short on guidance. While Roku earnings topped expectations, the company reported slower growth in the third quarter. Disney was scheduled to report after the bell Thursday.

Oil prices sank more than 1% as rising inventories overshadowed energy sanctions against Iran that took effect this week. West Texas Intermediate, the US benchmark, settled in bear-market territory — down 20% from its October high— trading just above $60 a barrel at session lows. Adding to concerns, the Wall Street Journal reported a state-run think tank in Saudi Arabia is studying what an OPEC breakup would mean for the oil market.
